Next public presentation – 1 February 2024

@Lee

Yes, I think this will require a bit of administration, because you can’t just add and substract amounts, because you’ll always have a number of bottles that are not sold yet.

Data you could collect:

• How much is in the kitty before and after the presentation
• Cost per bottle of beer
• Cost of a bottle of juice (note that sometimes bottles are unfinished, so the price of 3-4 glasses may need to cover the entire bottle)
• How much was paid to the people who bought the drinks
• How many bottles were bought but were not sold yet

Thanks Lie! That’s all clear

Who else could come to set up the room beforehand and have a chat with potential reeflings after the presentation?

Heya, I’ll be there (should make it for 7pm but can try earlier if need be)

[mieke]

There is a chance I won’t make it by 7 and arrive a bit later. Would you be willing to sign off the names at the entrance until I arrive? (Any chance that you could print the list?)

Hello, thanks for everyone who helped organising the public presentation, I think we can call it a success: 20 households were present and already 4 of them filled in the survey. They still have time to fill in the survey until Friday.
@reef-full I am setting up the one-on-ones so keep an eye on your mailbox on Edgeryders
See you all soon!

Hi everyone, 7 households filled in the survey after the presentation, which is great !
6 of them have already been matched with a reefling in order to have a one-on-one (thank you for that!).

• @reef-full I am still looking for someone who could have a one-on-one with a woman who prefers to meet during the day (not evenings), preferably in Forest, Saint Gilles or Uccle. Would someone be available? Send me a pm for more details. Thanks a lot in advance!
• Just a reminder to take a look at the buddy system manual and keep @reef-recruitment updated whether the newling wants to continue exploring the project. The deadline for applying for associate membership is 1 March.
• During the one-on-one, encourage the newling to particpate in a few meetings as an observer (plenary meeting, team building meeting, …) or participate in the scouting and community days (see agenda on Nextcloud)

Thanks and see you soon!

Hi @reef-full !

Following on from what Mieke said above, it’s important to read Section 2 of the Buddy System Manual if you are involved with one-on-ones with Exploring Members in the near future. In particular, things that have to be discussed are:

• Engaging with the Onboarding Manual (and checklist)
• Nextcloud and Edgeryders access (for all adult members of the household)
• Being open to all 19 communes of Brussels
• Attending a plenary and the possibility of sitting in on team meetings
• Not trying to read absolutely all the documents online
• The centrality of sociocracy and NVC to the project
